with reference to the personal attack, "meh" i don't really care what anyones opinion of my musical taste is.
but if you want to talk about the FACTS, destiny has been recycling the same B-class dj lineups for the past couple years.... its BORING BORING BORING.
thats a fact, not my opinion |

Hhaha. No it's not.
The usual Jungle/DNB lineup of Grooverider/DJ SS/Dillinja/Ed Rush & Optical is not there. In fact, it has been completely revamped to have BSE, which are on a very techy/trancey side of drum & bass (who haven't been here in a couple of years), and LTJ Bukem (who Destiny also doesn't "recycle" time after time), who's like atmospheric/chill Jungle. The respective sounds of these two artists alone are vastly different from what Destiny usually has in terms of DNB. I'll post some hype material about these guys soon, cause I think a lot of people on this board need to have their eyes opened to what they really sound like.
And RITM has last been here in 2005 WEMF? The other artists (except for locals and Rogue Element) I don't remember ever seeing on a Destiny (or any other) flyer at all.
Recycled? HAH!
Just because you're ignorant to who these artists are doesn't mean that the lineup is recycled. If anything, this is the freshest lineup Destiny has had in a few years. The ONLY downside is that it's so fresh that it loses some of the mainstream appeal because Armin Van Boring is not on the bill.
Anyway, no one's forcing you to go (although I think you should purely for the reason that for once, a major promoting company is pushing artists that Guv and the like would never think to bring in, which is exactly what everyone on this board keeps bitching about). If the lineup doesn't excite you, go somewhere else. |

you sure told me :)
i know im super ignorant, ill always be the young TA who doesnt know anything no matter what! its all good hahahah i dont mind getting ripped on for liking djs that are not completely underground
im just glad that when i was underage and had to rely on promoters like destiny (been to most in the past 5 years) for an electronic fix, i was getting the proper bang for my buck. i feel bad for the youngsters i work with that want to see those big names/semi-popular djs but just dont have the chance, i got lucky when i was 15 armin van borin ( not so boring at the time) had an all ages show.
destiny books the lesser known djs because they cant compete with guvernments piggy bank, lets be honest here, do you actually think that the majority of destiny's crowd is 19+? how many of these 15-18 year olds are at your level of musical knowledge, sure they may end up enjoying the djs that were booked, but do you honestly think thats whats drawing them there?
go somewhere else if you dont like it was your suggestion, and i agree, ill be at footwork the following week for kaskade, a dj im actually interested in seeing. |
